My newest story, after reading many of the pairing, a new and improved Itachi Sakura pairing! Sorry to all of you reading the original one. I had to cut back on the old ones, after months of not remembering the intended plot or ending it had to be deleted… very short first chapter. GET OVER IT!
I don't own Naruto or its characters. Plz R&R, requests accepted but may take time to start.
Full summary: 'Kidnapped, like a damsel in distress. Bound, like a prisoner behind bars. Weak, like a new born child. Loved, like the peaceful nights of winter… wait loved? That aint right, but that's why it is taboo I guess. The traitor and the loyal medic, so cheesy but bound to happen. Why me? Why now? And why isn't anybody doing anything?' the thoughts of Sakura Hurano during the day she was signed over to the enemy.
It is too damn early, it is raining, the coffee machine broke down, and I am not a morning person. Also today is Monday, just adding that to the list of why my mood sucks. I sit impatiently in a chair waiting for the "important meeting" to begin, I play with some of my pink locks to pass the time. 'Kakashi is late like usual.' I think, because he isn't here yet and I could be home resting. "Where is Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto whines, the rest of the Konoha rookie 9 ignored him. "Probably trying to stall this meeting, and hiding from miss pissy over there." Sai motioned over to me. "Shut up Sai, it is Monday and raining. You can't blame her for being pissy." Naruto defended me, like usual. "At least I don't punch you through buildings anymore." I glared at Sai.
Despite the glares and words, Sai is one of my best friends. After Sasuke left, Naruto and me took it the hardest. Sai came three days after the three year anniversary of Team 7's last mission, on that day I stay inside praying the best for my ex-teammate. Naruto is at a special training ground training till he falls unconscious, Kakashi-sensei finds him and takes him home. Even Kakashi is found at the memorial stone without his book. When Sai first really talked, I knew he was hurt to see us in pain as well, it was a born friendship.
He came to our birthdays, ANBU masking, and ate out with us. But what really got me was the first time he slapped me "He hurt you, Naruto, Kakashi, and this village. I know you will never stop caring for him as a teammate, but don't alienate yourself from the people here who care for YOU." I cried on his shoulder and then punched him into the wall, he knew the secret thank you behind it. How he helped Naruto I will never know, but I am glad he did. Kakashi seemed to be happy that we were back to being a team again. Slowly we all grew close, we have gotten so close we can instantly tell an imposter at first glance. "SAKURA! GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE CLOUDS!" Tsunade's voice shouted in my ears.
"Gomen na Tsunade-shisho" I rubbed my ringing ear. "Now that you are all here, I have something very important to tell you all." The tone was giving me chills, something tells me that this is going to change something big. "As you all know Sound and Cloud is threatening war, with the possibility of rumors being true about them luring the Hidden Earth village to join them too, the council thinks it is best that we get as many allies as possible…" Tsunade looked at each and every one of us with a stern look, obviously whatever is said here doesn't leave this room. "Well come on baa-chan! What are you hiding?" Naruto's impatience was always one of his weaknesses. "…The council of elders has signed a treaty with sand-" "How is a treaty with Gaara bad!" Naruto slammed his hands on the desk. I slapped his head, the baka. "As I was saying we made a treaty with Sand and Akatsuki, as of now, all and any Akatsuki members seen are to be treated as allies." The emotions in the room altered from shock to pure rage, them of all people! "Shisho you can't be serious! They are criminals, they have been hunting Naruto for years, and they have killed countless numbers of our shinobi! How can an alliance help us?" I yelled in fear for my home and Naruto's safety.
She sighed, obviously not fond of the idea either, and turned to overlook the village. "That is all true, but we need the power to protect this village. We have come to make agreements on what is and isn't allowed. They will fight alongside of us till the war is over, they have agreed to not harm or kidnap Naruto during our time of amasses. Though in return…" she turned around with the most serious face I have ever seen "One of you is going to join the ranks of Akatsuki, temporarily, and provide help as they see fit. They are not to harm you or sexually harass you, the moment it dose you are to return immediately and someone will take your spot. Are we clear?" She looked at the clock, she slightly cussed under her breath. "Naruto, Hinata, and Shikamaru listen closely. You three are the most likely to be picked, don't do anything to draw attention to yourself." She warned, I looked at my friends. 'It can't be them. Poor Hinata would snap under the pressure, Naruto would start too many fights and die from lack of ramen, and Shika is just too darn lazy." I thought, I weighed the thought of me being picked. My chances are not the best, I don't go on missions much anymore, and most of my time is at the hospital or keeping up my fighting style so I don't fall behind everyone again. The only thing I can offer is medical treatment, which I noted they don't have, and my inhuman strength.
"Since you are all ANBU now, you will be back here in exactly one hour in your uniform. Mask on, your profiles will not have a picture of you in it. They will be picking you only on your abilities and missions you have done, do not talk unless spoken too. Do not approach them, do not touch them, and most importantly don't disobey them. Once out of the village I have no control of how they act towards you." With the last warning she sent us home to get ready, I changed into the suit and armor in a flash. The porcelain cat mask rests at the side of my head, a purple line decorate the cheek bone on both sides and two dark blue slashes on the forehead. My pack was full, I had eaten, and took a short nap.
It was all too quick in my opinion, we all stood in a line much like earlier. A silent farewell and good luck, a tradition between ANBU members at odd times like this. Everyone had a tense aura, usually Naruto dose something to make us laugh by now. Even he is tense. Tsunade-shisho was saying something but I couldn't seem to pay attention, Neji and I were the first to notice the Akatsuki's approaching chakura signals. Only three, must not completely trust us yet. "Remember, obey their rules and don't do anything to mess up our treaty." Tsunade's last words to us. They seem to be the scariest. The last few minutes together were suffocating, wondering who will have to leave till the war is over. If push comes to shove, I hope I can sacrifice myself for Konoha's safety. (FORESHADOWING!)
CHAPTER 1 ENDING! Well? Anygood? Or am I just boasting? Or maybe both! Idk, just saying random shit again
